The rooms were very antiquated, but you expect this out of a hotel that’s over 100 years old. The step up into the bathrooms was a bit inconvenient it is usual. The pool area was mobbed by kids with no parental oversight

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
The hotel was not updated. I was given three different rooms due to malfunction in the amenities. Decided to stay in the last one because I did not want to move again. No heat was primarily the problem because the system that they had was only a two-way system, either AC or heat. I will never recommend that hotel to anybody. Running water in the bathtub shower area, where it could not be turned off and so cold that I had to have two portable heaters brought in so I could sleep at night.

Liked: Cleanliness
Room was clean. Hotel was beautiful. But, I would have rather paid more for a more luxury experience. It was an ice weekend, but they said the restaurant was open for breakfast, yet there was nobody at the front and 20 min later when the waiter finally came out (we even called from the front desk) he said they were closing in a few min and we couldn't stay. On top of that, breakfast for one would have been $40 so perhaps it was a blessing in disguise. For the luxury, be aware that the Comfort Inn I stayed in in Austin the night before had better bedding and a better mattress. There were 6 lightbulbs in the bathroom and even after unscrewing 3, it felt like a hospital. Unmatched cups in the room with low-end coffee. The complimentary bath items were all mix/matched. Overall, it was lacking, but the hotel itself is beautiful and historical and the location is great. My son wanted the haunted experience, which he got. But, next time, we'll stay at a more inclusive and quality stay.

Pros: Very good location (next to Alamo, Alamo Plaza, and River walk). Very nice lobby and displays. Room bed was comfortable, staff was very good, free bottles of water, small fridge Cons: The room size was cramped (one king size bed), room could use a small microwave oven, bathroom felt cramped (very little space between the toilet and vanity sink), no grab bars in shower for keeping balance.
